Contrary to what people may believe, it is not that easy to successfully garden in Hawaii. It takes a lot of work, trial and error. A couple of challenges are getting the soil conditions right for growing vegetables and also battling the garden pests. In my own garden, I am fighting off Asian Flower Beetles (adult and larvae) as well as the slugs.

O Lord,
the resurrection of your Son
has given us new life and renewed hope.
Help us to live as new people
in pursuit of the Christian ideal.
Grant us the wisdom to know what we must do,
the will to want to do it,
the courage to undertake it,
the perseverance to continue to do it,
and the strength to complete it.
